Rectangle Sunglasses for Women and Men

• What are rectangle sunglasses?

  Frames of rectangular sunglasses are sharp and straight, and the lenses are wider than they are tall. This gives the sunglasses a clean, geometric look. People who liked a simple style liked square sunglasses, which were popular in the 1980s and 1990s. They are made of acetate or metal. Frames in modern styles are often big and thin for a simple, modest look. When you want to balance out a round or oval face shape, rectangular sunglasses are the best choice. They block UV rays and give your look a mature, professional touch.
